User Reviews

User reviews favor the app’s clean interface and having NZ favorites in one place, but repeatedly highlight geo-blocking to New Zealand as a major drawback. VPN workarounds don’t reliably help. Updates have worsened stability, with slow loads, crashes, and cross-device issues (tvOS/iPad). Some users must reinstall to regain function. Overall, accessibility and reliability issues outweigh the positives.
Pros
  • Easy to use interface
  • Great interface
  • All NZ favorites in one place
Cons
  • NZ-only availability and geo-restrictions limit access for users outside New Zealand
  • VPN attempts do not reliably bypass the restriction; access often blocked
  • Updates have introduced instability: slow loading, errors, and crashes
  • Post-update issues across devices (tvOS/iPad) such as screen not filling, rotation problems, and unusable behavior
  • Reliability is inconsistent; some users must reinstall or relaunch the app to get it working

Errors kick me out all the time and then I keep having to watch commercials to get back into the show to get in 30 seconds of watching, only to get kicked out and have to go through it all over again!

The update for April 2026 was advertised well in advance. It has made the app unusable on my television and on my IPad. The IPad app opens, but will not fill the screen or rotate. Seems a very poorly planned update and very slow to be fixed,

Broken - does not recognize email address which works on website and on iOS (iPhone, iPad) but not on tvOS? Weird..
